Inside My Own Private Idaho

Remember when I said I like drama just as long as it ain't me? Well this time, it's me - :( My boss called me in yesterday and told me he wanted me to "think about something". He wants me to take another job - move me over to manage a group of people that I'm not all that crazy about. AND, it would have me reporting to someone who I like, but I just could never work for this guy because I so do not like his style. I asked if I had a choice and he said "ummmm....well...nothing's in stone yet" - translation - I don't have a choice. And for those of you that have been living under a rock for the past few years - the newspaper business isn't exactly flourishing right now. So while I am going to HATE this, and by the way it's going to have me being the boss of my bestest friend in Boise! - I have to do it. This makes me sick :(





I locked myself up in my room creating - trying to escape. I made this card for the day 2 of Julee's Verve challenges this week. I still can't believe I paired Ripe Avocado with Raspberry Fizz and I totally fancy this card. It might just be my most favorite yet (yes, I'm probably going to say that more and more as I learn and try new things, but just like my kids - can't I have more than just one favorite??).

Thanks for stopping by, girls - have a great day!

ETA: Jennifer asked about Challenges. The challenges aren’t really contests. It’s really just like doing a tutorial – like we used to do at the group in PSP, remember? They give you a sketch is what it’s called, says to put the ribbon here and put your focal point there – and no 2 cards end up looking alike because everyone interprets it differently. There are some contests that they do – but they aren’t based on one card looking better than another; most are pulled by random draw. So if I won or someone else won, it wasn’t because one card was better than the other. I want to win because you get free product – a free stamp set, or a bundle of paper – sometimes more, sometimes less…but free stuff means you don’t have to spend money and who doesn’t love that?! Thanks for being interested in my new little hobby!
